    Is 560 the minimum needed for a scholarship anywhere?

    It's 570 in UCC.:eek:

    What I got.................What I want

    English C3..................A1
    Irish C1.....................A1
    Maths A2..................A1
    French B2..................B1/A2
    Biology B1..................B1/A2
    Home-Ec D1...............B3
    Music B1......................A1/A2

    430..........................535(took the minimum grades)

    English - my absolute best subject! I'm always the highest achieving student in my class but the exam went horribly wrong:( Bad timing and crying your way through an exam is not the way to go!!:pac:

    Irish - got an A in paper 1 and a D in paper 2:P Some revision and it should be grand!

    Maths - pass, not worried about it. Work away in class and I'll be fine. I'm not counting it towards my final points.

    French - the listening was awful!!:eek: Really happy with the result though. Hopefully should be able to bring it up.

    Biology - slog it out between now and June and that should be fine.

    Home-ec - another exam where timing screwed me over. Such a hard subject though! Only aiming for a B3.

    Music - I'm really confidant with my practical and hope to get near full marks in it (this friday!:eek:) Some revision of the works and hopefully!!:)

    History..... HL C3
    Business... HL C3
    Biology..... HL D1
    Geography HL B3
    English..... OL B2
    Maths...... OL D1

    Considering the work I put in, was expecting this! 300 points, Need 350! Bit of work and surely I can go up by 50/60 points..

    Got 360 in my mocks. Enough points for the course I want, except I failed Maths and didn't get the C3 I need in French (Had a D1)

    With a bit of work, I'm hoping to get my required grades and maybe 400 points. :)

    I failed Geography(H) 38% I had a feeling I would fail before the test started even though I'm usually good and never fail it I know I can do it though.
    Engineering(H) by 34%
    maths(O) 21% .
    The rest English (O) I did good in paper 1 61% and paper 2 46%
    Business(H) D2
    French(O) D1
    my fault for not studying properly

    I'm aiming to try and get an A1 in Business and A2 in English and the rest B1s to get 410 points gonna be hard work. Maths will be really tough to get .

    My pres were:
    English: B3
    Irish: C1
    German: C1
    Business: C3
    History: C1
    Economics: C1

    I had three extra mocks a few weeks later and got:

    Business: B3
    History: B2 (left out 10% of the exam so was delighted)
    Economics: B1

    So originally 415, upto 455 with the second exams, and hoping for 520 in the LC, I'd like

    English: A1
    Irish: B1
    German: B2
    History: A1
    Business: B3
    Economics: A1/A2
